Detective Pikachu Catches the Spark but Needs More Charge

I was about six years old when I joined the Pokemon phenomenon. I begged my parents to take me to Pokemon: The First Movie (I decision I now regret) and frequently watched the anime up until the Hoenn League in Season Eight: Advanced Battle. I occasionally came back to the show: a few episodes of the Sinnoh Region with Diamond & Pearl, watched the entire Unova series with Black & White, and the first half of the Kalos adventure in X&Y where I stopped watching the anime again (Sorry Sun & Moon fans).

For years, James Cameron had wanted to make a movie based on Yukito Kishiro's manga series about a young female cyborg. Due to reasons ranging from not having the technology at the time and being busy with Avatar and its long-delayed sequels, Robert Rodriguez stepped in as director with Cameron serving as both producer and screenwriter as life is finally given to this long-awaited project.
